Doesn't making an ingame blog and forum about movie discussion destroy the ingame part?
PM noob.
Yeah, I see what you're saying, but remember that we still don't know what the ultimate aim of this game/experience is yet. The new site kind of feels like a reward we got for spreading the word, so it's actually kinda cool. And we have a new branch with the Veidt Method to work on. So far, it's not that bad.

Sent an e-mail to Adrian asking about the Veidt Method, and got the same response as Lunatech.
However, it was e-mailed to me from Rorschach's account, not Adrian's. :-/
I'm debating on whether or not to call him on it, but I figure that it's just a PM slip-up, and I don't want to screw anything up re: the game, so I'll probably just leave it alone. Any thoughts?

the curtain getting pulled back is frustrating. Still pretty interesting and fun though. I think the PM or PM's will get better with time. [spec] I am wondering if all of this is to create a fan site for the Watchmen. Kind of like theonering.[/spec]

I'd be surprised if it weren't.

I am kind of disappointed... was hoping for some sort of cool payoff... All we've gotten so far is a lot of amateur-ish stuff. I'm still going to participate, but... just... disappointing is all...

I'm new, so I don't really know what theonering that you're talking about is, but it's in the page source for The Veidt Method.

yup. Pretty much a viral to draw traffic. I'll keep an eye to see if anything exciting happens. Veidt updated his site. complaining about the attacks from another site. Purportedly Rorschachsjournal.

Mildly interestingly, the update to TheVeidtMethod.com site's news:
Adrian Veidt wrote:
News organizations around the globe have reported on the slanderous comments coming from a certain website. Let me state The Truth right here, these stories and rumors are completely false.
My lawyers advise me not to push the matter further, but let me assure you that I will not stand by while a former friend and ally spreads my good name and reputation in the mud. I think you know who I am talking about and what website I am referring to. The truth Is that this has hurt me greatly.
Recently the person in question has even attempted to subvert the security measures on this website, even going as far as asking for help from outside sources. I have also heard that this person has begun A leaflet campaign in an attempt to bring more awareness to his cause. Please do not exacerbate the situation by responding to his calls for help or aiding him in his mission. My lawyers tell me I should Lie low and let it boil over. That is what I intend to do.
Best wishes and encouragement - Adrian Veidt.

I was hoping it was. Otherwise I've missed a lot. Though it would be nice to see a bit more advancement in this one.

Hi, thought I'd join in here since I'm a big fan of the Watchmen book, but it's a bit unclear from the thread discussion exactly what's happened so far. Would anyone care to summarise for me? Hopefully I can be helpful.

well, http://rorschachsjournal.com popped up. It had morse code on it, which can be found translated elsewhere in the thread. We started emailing Rorschach and were eventually given instructions to print off posters, put them up in public places and send in pictures of them.
Next we got in contact with Adrian Veidt, and were rewarded with the website www.theveidtmethod.com which doesn't seem to have much for us to play with.
Then the Rorschach's Journal site transformed into an actual blog-like thing that seems to be trying to be both in game and out of game at the same time. It alternately has Rorschach posting codes and discussing the casting for the Watchmen movie.
After that nothing much happened, and we all either got annoyed or lost interest.
